Apply Androgel to clean, dry skin. Use a thin layer, rubbing gently until absorbed. Avoid applying to broken or irritated skin. A pea-sized amount is usually sufficient for each application area.
Cleaning the Application Site
After applying Androgel, allow it to dry completely before dressing. Avoid touching the application area until it’s dry. If you accidentally touch the gel, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
Using Cotton Swabs
Cotton swabs are useful for precise application, particularly in smaller areas. However, avoid using them to spread the gel excessively; this can lead to uneven application and potential skin irritation. Use a gentle dabbing motion, not rubbing.
Important Considerations
Always follow your doctor’s instructions carefully. Wash your hands after each application. If you experience any side effects, contact your physician immediately. Regularly check the application site for any signs of irritation or allergic reactions.
